John

Do you like to bake bread? Many find it a very satisfying thing to do. In this lesson, Jesus literally made bread, but not as you or I would. Today's lesson is the conversation that follows, bread as a metaphor for life, and Jesus as the bread of life.
We’ll see the first of seven “I Am” statements that Jesus makes, taking the Old Testament name of God, applying it to himself and adding a metaphor to explain something about his character and the nature of his work.
A study of John 6 26-40 based on "Explore the Bible: Winter 2022-23" from Lifeway. This is the seventh lesson on John’s gospel prepared by Gary Stieber for Houston's First Baptist Church.

Whole Wheat Flat Bread:
Ingredients: 4 cups finely ground whole wheat flour
1- ½ t salt
3 T butter
2 egg yolks
2 T olive oil
1 cup milk or water
Instructions: Make the dough- sift flour, then add salt. Cut the butter into the flour mixture. In another bowl, beat egg yolks, adding oil slowly, then milk or water. Pour this mixture into the dough and stir with a spoon or fork until it forms a ball of dough that comes away from the side of the bowl. Knead lightly on a floured board for about a minute to shape the dough into soft ball.
Lightly flour the board again, pinch off about one-third cupful of dough and with the hands pat it as thin as can easily be done, then roll it thinner with a rolling pin. Keep working the dough and rolling it until the dough is so thin it just holds together without breaking when handled. Place rolled dough on an ungreased baking sheet and mark it into squares of any desired size with a knife or make bread sticks. Bake in preheated oven at 400° for 8-12 minutes until puffed, or very lightly browned.
